colonial past
The magic of Vietnam lies in its exoticism and traditionsbut also in the important footprint o cultural and historical legacy that we found in their territory.
saigon is one of the clear examples of this union between east and west leaving palpable “portraits” in buildings and art.
Built in the XIX century, The Notre Dame Cathedral in Ho Chi Minhis also known as the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception.
Built with a clear French touchthis church is a one of the largest we can see in Southeast Asia and one of the most beautiful
Located in the heart of Saigon and a few steps from the Post Officethe facade of this church is built with reddish stone, transported from France.
This emblematic building of more than 55 meters highstands out for its two towers and its elaborate stained glass windows.
Visiting the Cathedral of Notre Dame will provide us with a great vision of the importance that France had in Vietnam and the great legacy he left behind.
This basilica is the place chosen by many Vietnamese couples to get married or to take wedding pictures.
The interior of the church is very similar to any that we can find in any European city although it has some important details.
Although without a doubt, this building built by french settlershas its most attractive part in its two towers that are close to 60 meters high, which crown the sky of this area of old Saigon.
Essential visit.
